    Wicked electrical problem, 1980 BJ40 diesel

    This issue was closed by installing new battery, and new lead from starter to battery that had gotten fried-I appreciate all the help from the folks here.

    Yes, it is 24v with series connection-and everyone is saying that the connection was likely loose-and that is probably right. Thanks for the answer.

    It happened in the 10 seconds or so of starting-wife immediately shut down. Looks like the groups says I failed to tighten that terminal end down properly (likely), so I will replace terminal end, and battery, and get back in the saddle. Thanks all!

    It is a 24 V rig with the batteries in series. Possibly I failed to properly tighten that one terminal back down. Thanks for the idea.

    Looking for help to clear my stupidity on this please. Had a starter failure, pulled it-had it rebuilt (twice as the shop had it reversed the first time). New rebuild clearly has "12V" sticker on solenoid housing-but they assured me no prob. First startup and test drive (<5min) no problems...
